Chapter 5
Buffy walked home holding the cross. She didn't know how to find Angel, and therefore little way to return it to him. If they saw each other again sure but aside from that no recourse. As Buffy walked she heard something. It seemed to be coming from behind the fence, thus Buffy couldn't see it right away. She also couldn't make out what was being said. It could easily be too young lovers engaging in secret passion. But Buffy's instincts told her it was something bad. She knew she probably shouldn't, but she couldn't help herself. For whatever reason Buffy felt drawn to this, she peaked her head over the fence. Buffy saw the man standing over a young woman lying on the ground. Then she saw this man plunge a dagger into the woman's chest. Her instincts took over and she ran to the young girl's aid. The man seemed suprised, particularly when Buffy fought him. The fight was brief, even Buffy was suprised at her own strength. She soon knocked this man unconsciouss. Buffy used her cellphone to call 911. She recognized this girl from the party yesterday. Her name was Marcie. It looked like this sick man had tried to carve a symbol into Marcie's chest with a dagger. That had been stopped but it was too late to save her. This man had already slit Marcie's throat. She was dead.
